Error turning Zap on: Your Zap includes more steps than the maximum amount your plan allows.

problem

The display of the `Running` button on the management screen is always off.

However, if you test according to the actually created `zaps`, it will work normally.

When you click the `Running` button, the following error is displayed.

Error turning Zap on: Your Zap includes more steps than the maximum amount your plan allows. Upgrade to allow more steps to be used

 

When I checked the official page of zapier, I did not meet the conditions to change to a paid plan at this time.

Hi @iRidge 

Good question.

You need a Zapier paid plan to turn Zaps ON with 3+ steps.

Thank you for answering!

 

In other words, since there are four zap settings: "slack", "filter", "code by zapier", and "gmail", does that mean that I have to operate with a paid plan?

@iRidge 

Each of the steps in a Zap are numbered. (e.g. 1, 2, 3, 4)

To turn Zaps ON with 3+ steps you must have a Zapier paid plan.

Sorry for the late reply.

Thank you for answering.

I understand why you need a paid plan if you use 4 zap. However, the special thing about this time is that it can be operated with the free plan with 4 zap created.
Certainly, in the part where I first asked the question, I wrote that it could not be set to `running`, but that is a problem with the display part of the management screen, and the internal problem is normal.

How can I resolve this issue?

I'm glad that I can use it with the free plan for operation, but I'm still worried. . .
